My first blog....

Not really sure why I decided to try this....I have checked out others today, and have been inspired I guess....
Not really sure what to say on my first blog...other than, I guess tell about myself and my family.

So, I am Carol, the mom....the one who cleans up after everyone. Korey is my husband, the dad...he is a police officer in the city of Rochester, NY....and the father to our 3 boys...Little Korey (and he will be called this until the day I die) he will be turning 13 next month, and has already started with the teen tude....then there is Jordan, he turned 9 in June...and then finally our little surprise, Jacob, he is 3. He is currently going through his terrible 2's late and he is learning the behavior of his older brothers.

I am a stay at home mom now, since we have had Jacob....but in these last few years my old job has called me back a number of times to help out, train new personel, do projects....for probably a total of at least 1 year....with a few months here and a few weeks there...and it was nice to be needed. I have not gone into work since February. I really miss it. I am also ready for school to start again, does that make me a bad mom? No, I don't really think so, I just realize it was easier to go to work and have someone else spend the summer with them, AND get paid for it....
Really, I love my kids, I am just still getting used to this whole stay at home mom thing I guess.

My parents recently moved from their home of 35 years to TN, the house that I grew up in was sold, and that was more emotional than I thought it would be. I rode my bike there today...it was sad. But, my parents are happy in Tennessee....so I need to be happy for them, right? I just wished we were closer.

Well, for not having much to say, I have said enough today...

Carol, I'm glad you're a blogger now! Don't worry, if Jake turns out like your older 2 boys he'll be one great kid. I'll be checking back for future posts!
